FINANCIAL STATEMENT : Not Yet Determined
DESCRIPTION • At the December 14, 1987 meeting of the
Dublin City Council, the Council adopted a resolution approving
the transfer of aquatic programming responsibility from the
Dublin San Ramon Services District to the City of Dublin
effective January 1, 1988. As the City has not previously been
responsible for any type of aquatic programming, job
classifications have not been established for aquatic personnel.
Staff has determined that the following positions are necessary
in order to adequately plan and organize aquatic programs and
operate the Valley Community Swim Center :
Aquatics Coordinator
Pool Manager
Assistant Pool Manager
Swim Instructor
Lifeguard
Cashier
As the pool is tentatively scheduled to open for the public on
Memorial Day weekend, it is necessary to begin recruitment of
temporary, part-time aquatic personnel by February.
Pursuant to Personnel System Rules, appropriate job descriptions
and salary ranges must be adopted by resolution before
recruitment can begin. Exhibit A contains a resolution amending
the classification plan and job descriptions for the
aforementioned positions . Exhibit B contains a resolution
establishing a salary plan for part-time personnel . The salary
plan not only reflects the proposed hourly salaries for the new
aquatic positions, but also reflects salary adjustments for the
following positions : _
Clerk Typist - Part-Time -
Recreation Leader I
Recreation Leader II -
Senior Recreation Leader
Due to the passage of recent legislation, effective July 1, 1988,
the minimum wage will be increased from $3. 35 per hour to $4 . 25
per hour. Both the Clerk Typist and the Recreation Leader I fall
below the new minimum wage. As Staff is preparing to recruit for
Summer playground Staff, it is recommended that the salaries be
adjusted now instead of July 1, 1988. By adjusting salaries now,

AGENDA STATEMENT - Amendments to Personnel System
Page Two
Staff will be able to include the adjusted salary ranges on the
job descriptions which may help to attract more highly qualified
persons to the positions . A comparison of current part-time
hourly salaries with proposed ranges is attached in Exhibit C.
Therefore, Staff recommends that the City Council take the
following action:
1. Adopt the Resolution Amending the Classification Plan
2. Adopt the Resolution Establishing A Salary Plan for
Part-Time Personnel
3. Authorize recruitment of Aquatics Coordinator in order
that the City may open pool and begin aquatics
programming when the swimming season begins
Sufficient funds are available in the FY86-87 Budget to cover the
increases in the salary ranges for the Clerk Typist and
Recreation Leader positions . On February 8, 1988, Staff will
present the Council with a report regarding the exact number of
hours and costs of the aquatics program.
